Pablo Picasso by Christian Zervos

Picasso -The Zervos Cahiers d'art


A Modern Masterpiece is Reborn



In 1932, Cahiers d’Art published the first volume of the Picasso Catalogue, a project prepared by Christian Zervos in partnership with Picasso himself.

This massive undertaking became Zervos’s life work and one of the most influential pieces of scholarship on the 20th century’s most renowned artist.

At long last, this historic 33-volume set is available again. The original catalogue, with corrections from Picasso Administration, is available in French and in English.

The Zervos’ is an extensive catalogue of Picasso’s paintings and drawings, presenting over 16,000 images in thirty-three volumes. Prepared by Cahiers d’Art founder Christian Zervos in direct collaboration with Picasso, the Zervos was published between 1932 and 1978.
